kmweaver (1770), Takoma Park, Maryland, USA May 14, 2008 Bottle @ Brickskeller’s Lupulin Reunulin event. Pours a bright, bold honey golden color; off-white head with fine-bubbled lacing. Very floral aroma: gardenias, vegetal, and oddly perfumy; sort of stewed floral notes; bandaids? Slightly syrupy aroma: bandaids, aspirin (like a liquid first-aid kit), Belgian sugars, and stale malts; very bland malt character; brett in description only. Medium finish: aspirin, bland malts, and breadiness; messy stuff.
railcat1 (468), Hammond, Indiana, USA Jul 8, 2008 This was ok with a smooth belgian farmhouse taste and a bitter yet nasty aftertaste CHEERS! BorksBabe (60), Tampa, Florida, USA Jul 8, 2008 Aroma is slightly citrus with a hint of hops and urinal cake. Appears to be a traditional belgian but is more like a ceizen in makeup. Too thin on the palate and flavor is incredibly disappointing. Aftertaste of feet and piss. ew. Palidor19 (1165), Brandon, Florida, USA Jul 8, 2008 I cant really recommend this, taste is too soapy with flavor of heavy herbs and spices. the flavors are all wrong.I love Avery beer but this one fails. nick76 (1935), Tampa, Florida, USA Jul 8, 2008 The aroma is funky that is like a urinal cake with flowers, yeast, and malt. The appearance is golden with a small head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is thin. Overall this is not a very good beer for an avery. brentfeesh (875), Gadsden, Alabama, USA Jul 8, 2008 Enjoyed on the 4th of July. Golden and carbonated with a big white head. Funk is apparent in the aroma. There is a touch of barnyard and a light floral touch. Wet hay, pepper and sharp fruit also come to mind. The flavor is quite peppery with just a hint of fruit (fig is believable). I would also say that the funk is present as are some barn like qualities (I don’t know how else to describe it). Light body, semi-dry finish. Certainly not my favorite, but better than I expected.
